Product Description
There’s only one thing more dangerous than a corrupt cop . . . and that’s a corrupt cop with a gun.
When a group of armed police in an elite unit turn maverick and start to rip off drug dealers at gunpoint, undercover cop Dan ‘Spider’ Shepherd is given his most dangerous mission so far.
Shepherd is ordered to infiltrate the tight-knit team, to gain their confidence and to ultimately betray them.
Facing men with guns is nothing new for the former SAS trooper, but it’s the first time he’s had to investigate his own. And the job couldn’t have come at a worse time for him.
As Shepherd finds himself in the firing line, he has to decide exactly where his loyalties lie.

Review
'Stephen Leather should be nestling in your bookshelves alongside Frederick Forsyth and Jack Higgins' (Daily Mail )
'A whirlwind of action, suspense and vivid excitement' (Irish Times on THE BIRTHDAY GIRL )
'Stephen Leather's novel manages to put a contemporary spin on a timeless tale of revenge and retribution . . . Leather's experience as a journalist brings a sturdy, gritty element to a tale of horror . . . which makes THE EYEWITNESS a compelling read' (Evening Herald, Dublin )
'As tough as British thrillers get . . . gripping' - Irish Independent on HARD LANDING
'As high-tech and as world-class as the thriller genre gets' - Express on Sunday on THE BOMBMAKER
'Exciting stuff with plenty of heart-palpitating action gingered up by mystery and intrigue . . . Leather is an intelligent thriller writer' - Daily Mail on THE TUNNEL RATS
Ireland on Sunday
Reading Stephen Leather at leisure is always a pleasure. The pacing of Soft Target is superb.

Mistakes, mistakes, mistakes
The punctuation and spelling mistakes made me give up at page 40. To spell beatles twice on the same page with a double "E" was too much!
I forgot what the story was about looking for the next mistake
SGH
Great dan shepard story
I love to read series books and the Dan Shepard stories are excellent. Great fiction story. If you like this try Soft Target (same title) by Conrad Jones, mind blowingly good !!! great reads both of them....10/10
Brilliant
This was the first Stephen Leather I read and I thought it brilliant. I was so impressed I went & bought it for my 40ish old brother-in-law who also loved it. Very difficult to put down; I am now completeley addicted to these books.
